100% No-Bypass Filtration

Ewww! Yuck!

100% No-Bypass filtration means that all the water passes through the hot tub filters before it enters the spa.

With other spas, water can bypass the filter when the jets are on – the very time when you're in the spa and need clean water the most.

Bypassing occurs when there's too much pump and not enough filter - forcing unfiltered water, complete with body oils and debris, directly back into the spa.



Nearly every hot tub has filters and every hot tub has pumps... but how they combine the two couldn't be more different. 

Here's why:

Hot Spring spas filter all the water all the time.

SPA-Article # 4: What if Regular, Routine Maintenance Isn't Enough?

If It's a Habit, It Gets Done. Right?

Most certainly yes! But what if you are regularly and routinely performing your hot tub maintenance steps and you still are experiencing cloudy water, itchy skin, etc?

Well, it may not be you. It could be the hot tub.

Some hot tubs require more maintenance than other hot tubs.

Just like anything in life, you do get what you pay for - superior water quality, with little effort on your part or average or poor water quality with A LOT of work required by you.

25 Square Foot Filter ?

65 Square Foot Filter?

First of all, does your hot tub have the proper amount of filtration?

325 Square Feet of Filtration

It makes sense that more is better when it comes to hot tub filtration.


Hot tubs that have several filters or larger filters can filter more particles out of the water. That means longer time between filter cleanings.

Multiple filter design not only makes water care easier, it extends the life of the filters,

saving the customer hundreds of dollars over the life of the spa. 

Because only one filter works all the time, if you rotate them like tires on a car, they should last 3-5 years! 

Easier on you (your budget) and the filters and the pumps...

If you have 350 gallon hot tub (average size of most tubs), which would you prefer:  25 square feet or 325 square feet?

Silent flo 5000 Circulation Pump

Secondly, how many hours does your hot tub filter and circulate the water daily?

How many hours a day does the water pass through the filter(s)? 

Image if the water was filtered 24 hours a day. That would mean particles were being filtered out of the hot tub water continuously. Not just a couple of hours a day (or less if programmed to do so) Yuck.

A circulation pump is a small, independent pump that continuously filters the hot tub water 24 hours a day. Some hot tubs have them, some hot tubs don't.

Some hot tubs that don't have a circulation pump, may have a (larger) 2 speed pump, that includes a high and a low speed. When there is a drop in temperature the low speed pump turns on and circulates the water. Better than no circulation pump, but still not 24 hour - constant - filtration. 

If your hot tub doesn't have constant filtration, you will work harder to maintain to cleaner, healthier water.

Lastly, is every drop of water filtered?

Is every drop of water filtered before returning back to the hot tub or does some of the water go through floor drains (by pass fittings) and back to the hot tub unfiltered? ONLY Hot Spring offers 100% No-Bypass Filtration.

The Difference between No-Bypass vs By Pass Filtration

Question: The most important part of your hot tub experience is the water. 

How much do you want to work on your water?

How much do you expect your hot tub to work for you?

A little or a lot?

Shouldn't the thing you experience the most - the water - be the thing that should require the least effort from you? 




A Ozone System

Standard with all Hot Spring hot tubs, the FreshWater® III high-output ozone system.

Working 24/7, it continuously injects millions of tiny, highly concentrated ozone bubbles into the water. These ozone bubbles neutralize contaminants on contact.

The system uses a corona discharge cell, requiring virtually no maintenance.

Hot Spring Hot Tubs Has Figured It Out!



The Vanguard displayed in PoolCo's sunroom.

ACE sanitizing system for hot tubs. The most beautiful, silky-soft hot tub water. Our staff agrees, this is the absolute easiest hot tub to maintain...ever!

The revolutionary ACE system uses a diamond electrode to break apart water molecules to create active oxygen, one of the world’s most effective natural cleaners. The active oxygen then combines with salt and other elements in the water to create chlorine and three other powerful oxidizers.

To activate the ACE salt water sanitizing system, the Hot Spring spa owner adds the appropriate amount of salt to balanced water and enters the spa’s size and expected use level on the main control panel. After that,  the owner simply checks the sanitizer level regularly with a test strip and confirms use level once a month. A status message on the control panel identifies that the ACE system is cleaning the water.

• ACE salt water sanitizing system automatically generates five cleaners.
• Reduces time spent on hot tub maintenance.
• Owners are much less likely to experience dry itchy skin or irritated red eyes.
• No harsh odors of traditional water care.

Hot Tub Insulation

Hot Tub Insulation: Hot tub insulation serves several purposes:

1. It keeps the heat in, creating energy efficiency.
2. It reduces the noise of the equipment in the hot tub.
3. It keeps the plumbing in place by reducing vibration.

While you're shopping, you may experience several different types of spa insulation. Generally, all manufacturers place hot tub foam insulation along their hot tub shells. Some place spa insulation along the floors, and some place insulation inside the cabinets. These hot tubs are called "partially insulated." Hot tubs that are full-foam insulated - ones that have foam along the shell, the floor, and the cabinet - are the most energy-efficient hot tubs on the market.

While some manufacturers claim that partial insulation forms a "thermal plane" or a "heat keeper" pocket, we believe the most efficiently engineered hot tubs and spas are foam-filled.

You may also hear that full foam insulation makes servicing a hot tub more difficult. This may, in fact, be true. However, it's important to take into account the entire cost of owning your hot tub. If full foam hot tub insulation reduces your energy costs by adding efficiency, is it worth giving up your savings to make hypothetical repairs a little easier? You're probably better off buying a fully insulated hot tub or spa from a hot tub manufacturer with a good reputation, sound warranty, and well-built components. Overall, you'll spend less in the long-run, and enjoy your spa more.

• Does the hot tub have full foam insulation? Is it insulated along the shell, inside the cabinet, and along the floor? Are the plumbing fixtures housed inside the spa insulation, to soundproof the hot tub, reduce vibration and leaks?
